Toning skin, losing inches, and reducing the appearance of cellulite are important to your clients. Although the most effective treatments are performed by professional technicians, there are also at-home endermologie® cellulite reduction treatment devices that promise similar results. What’s the difference?
endermologie® Machines
The best endermologie® results are seen at endermologie® centers because of the expertise and training of the medspa professionals. They know how to customize treatments and guide a client’s lifestyle to achieve the best results. At these centers, professionals will use some of the most high-tech devices available from LPG®.
Once your series of professional treatments is complete, your clients may be interested in an at-home device as part of a maintenance plan to keep their skin smooth. The Wellbox® by LPG is a great option. It is similar to professional endermologie® devices in that it works by using motorized rollers to safely and gently massage the skin and reduce up to 20% of dimples in cellulite. The best part is that it comes in two options: rollers for the body, and flaps for the face to lessen the appearance of lines and wrinkles.
Saunas
Cellulite is caused by several factors — the accumulation of fat, decreased circulation, water retention, lack of exercise, and the resulting build-up of toxins. A sauna can be effective in cellulite reduction because it helps eliminate toxins from the body via perspiration.
In contrast to at-home saunas, professional saunas come with high-end features. For example, the Vivo Jade Sauna comes with jade stones, which have been known to have healing properties. While at-home devices, such as portable infrared saunas, offer some basic benefits, they also can be dangerous because there is no professional monitoring. Risks include dehydration and overheating; but with a professional sauna these risks are minimized due to the additional supervision.
